heartbroken that John Clauser seems to have joined climate change denial.

I don't understand.  This man is an intellectual giant in the science community. He has aligned himself with the very unscientific group "co2coalition"

Co2 coalition has no credible challenge to anthropomorphic global warming.

why would a man with that history of achievement take such a position unless he really believed it to be the truth.

I realize this could be a very short thread before it is locked.   I ask every participant to just review the facts which are accepted in the scientific community and not go to conspiracy sources.

I suspect you're right. These kinds of topics tend to descend into chaos. At the end of the day, regardless of one's beliefs/opinions one way or another, it's an area of science which is relatively new and rapidly changing. Ultimately, anything we can do to make this place more habitable is a good thing, not just a fixation on CO2 emissions. Our reliance on plastics that simply get thrown out is one change I've personally made. Instead of food containers that crack or absorb smells/colours, I've opted for glass containers which are far more durable (if you look after them) and easier to keep clean. Or consider buying quality over quantity when it comes to household appliances and other goods.

I rarely even come close to filling my kerbside rubbish bin. Usually just a small bag or two at most each week. In contrast, my recycling is always full and I usually have to utilise next door's recycle bin as well.

There is a global conspiracy of climate scientists to make their work look more important that it actually is (it's not) by cherry picking data and drumming up doomsday hysteria.
By using climate science sources you are using conspiracy sources. Your whole logic is flawed.
